From the track walk on the legendary 7,004 kilometers of the circuit set in the Ardennes forest, through the starting of the engines on the first day dedicated to free practice, up to the qualifying, the Hyperpole – when the adrenaline and the wait for the chronometric results reach the pinnacle – and the entire arc of the ride, “The Red Line” allows fans to discover new situations and dialogues.
Starting from 19th and tenth position, Antonio Fuoco-Miguel Molina-Nicklas Nielsen (the trio, after having signed the Hyperpole, had been relegated to the starting grid) and Alessandro Pier Guidi-James Calado-Antonio Giovinazzi, respectively with the 499P number 50 and 51, had come back in the race to lead the race.
At that point a red flag forced everyone to stop when on the clock there were 1 hour, 47 minutes and 30 seconds left until the checkered flag (scheduled for 7pm). When the restart was announced, which took place at 6.55pm, the recovery of the hour and 44 minutes of suspension was established.
The Ferrari 499P numbers 50 and 51, after the necessary pit stops, finished the race in third and fourth position, while the crew number 83 of the AF Corse team – made up of Yifei Ye, Robert Shwartzman and Robert Kubica – obtained a eighth place overall and the third step of the podium reserved for independent teams.
